I have never completed a white gold tower run

I'm not lvl50 but I feel like this dungeon requires too much communication for PuGs when it is rare to find someone with a mic. Group usually ends up wiping 3 or 4 times and we all ditch the scene.

Seriously?
Normal mode WGT?

What role do you play?

I play a MagickaDPS DK, level 41.

Usually, what happens is that some or none of the others read up on the mechanics in a dungeon finder PuG and they all end up dying and then it's hard to coordinate (for example, pinions) when no one uses a mic and you really can't prepare because everyone's trying to rush.

After 3-4 deaths people then just quit lol. I am almost lvl50 and have completed every dungeon. Except WGT.

It kinda reminds of cata-era dungeons from WoW where organized guild groups were fine but dungeon finder became death. xD

Neither have I (or ICP) and I'm cp280! I've got put into random groups for it a few times but the groups always seem to have low level people in them and we just wipe.

Its a hard one if people don't know what they doing for sure, people just need to get on the Mic's. Its such a wicked tool im unsure why so many players avoid it and beg for Text Chat instead, crazy, If you ask me. But yeah I concur the dungeon is like half way between normal and vet if peeps don't know what they are doing.

Try joining a guild, running with a known group on comms makes huge difference

It's a much easier dungeon when you can coordinate. Try running it with friends or guildmates who have voice communication if you're looking for an easier time in there.

Dubhliam · August 2016

Yeah... WGT and ICP are not your regular dungeons (along with the two new ones that just came out), and each of those dungeons have their own mechanics that are slowly introduced through the dungeon.

I am guessing you play on console?
If I recall correctly, consoles will get text chat with the new DLC, so you can type the tactics of the dungeon to PUGs.

However, I really recommend you find a nice guild and ask the guildies to walk you through it.
If you have trouble finishing it on normal mode, God help you in veteran.

Without a doubt, I will be doing veteran in guild groups only. When I find one. xD

I can't believe this.

Well, I've now completed one since everyone in the group was using voice chat so we could coordinate. lol

Gratz - I completed it once with some guildies. We scaled it down using a lower level vet toon to lead and swippity swappity we had our maxed at the time charachters run it. Not a bad way to see how it all works. LOL - stil sporting my CP10 Kena Helm. I feel a little more confident to go back at it now.
